Welcome to The Shire in Kenoza Lake! Once the home and studio space of an internationally renowned pop artist and print maker, the 92+ acre property with its three ponds, vineyard, & acres of rolling hills begs to be explored. The original farmhouse was built in 1880 and has been lovingly maintained & updated. Enter through the foyer to discover an open chef’s kitchen with a top-of-the-line 7 burner stove with convection oven, modern stainless steel appliances, and wine refrigerator – a dream for entertaining. The formal dining room overlooking the cozy sunken living area with its wood-burning fireplace and expansive windows add a touch of elegance to the home. Upstairs you’ll find the large primary suite, an inner sanctuary for rest & relaxation, complete with a soaking tub and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom on the second floor offer plenty of room for family and guests. An additional room on the first floor offers the space for an office or another bedroom; a laundry room, pantry, and half bath add to the home’s functionality. Enjoy sunsets from the rock-paved sitting area outside the farmhouse overlooking one of the ponds, the greenhouse, and vineyard. The larger barn’s main area boasts impressively high ceilings, open spaces, and a flood of natural light from the skylight, the perfect space for continued use as an artist studio or an amazing space for entertaining. This barn also has an upstairs sitting area and outdoor deck that offers possibilities of finishing for an additional living or entertaining space; climb the ladder to the crow’s nest to discover stunning 360-degree views of the property and surrounding vistas. A smaller barn currently offers additional storage, but has potential to be finished for yet another living or entertaining space; it could be the perfect spot for a one’s yoga practice. Three Estonian Iglu tiny homes (each can comfortably sleep up to 4 people) circle one of the property’s ponds; they are already in-demand AirBnB/STR accommodations. Two wood-fired Iglu saunas and a hot tub offer a relaxing retreat enjoyable year-round. The expansive Shire property offers a world of possibilities from transforming into an event space or wedding venue, a private compound with space for everyone, or multi-faceted horse and agricultural property. A hop, skip, and jump away from Kenoza Hall. Nearby Jeffersonville offers restaurants, shopping, and other conveniences. Approximately 2 hours to NYC. Experience the beauty and history of The Shire – a rare gem that blends artistic legacy with natural splendor. Schedule a private tour today; you’re sure to fall in love.
